- Book Synopsis
- Peter 'Ginger' Baker was a legend. A pioneering drummer who transcended genre, he also lived a life more rock'n'roll than most. In his harrowing and outrageously honest book, he charts his journey from war-torn south London to his adopted home in South Africa's beautiful Western Cape. Along the way he tells how he discovered drums, his passion for music, his life on the road with Cream as well as his decent into drug addiction. Recently passing away in October 2019 at the age of eighty, Hellraiser is the story of a genuine music icon.
